Milk Ranch Point Road Dispersed Camping

This campsite was great. It’s a bit dusty and windy but overall I loved it. I went a little further in that the gps coordinates given. There are probably 4 sites that have views of The Valley. Im not sure, I only went around 2 miles past the coordinates. It wasn’t too busy, however you will hear atvs and cars driving by. It’s popular but not a crowded area. Tons of dispersed camping spots.
Overall I really enjoyed the area.
There was 1 bar or AT&T but it was extremely patchy.
The weather was good however it is getting a bit hotter.
I would come back the views were amazing.
The road is bumpy at times but mostly very easy to drive on!
Loved my stay!

This site is a great way to get on the Mogollon Rim without driving a lot on the dirt roads. There are some dirt roads but I bet you could get there without 4wd. The downside of it being near the highway is that there were a lot of people there and I was there during the week. There are plenty of campsites, but if your neighbors have generators, you're are gonna hear them. Our neighbors had a generator they ran all the time, and a lot of OHV vehicles they were driving around. So keep in mind if you are looking for a secluded, quiet place, this isn't it.

Spectacular views, but the road in is rough. Very rocky with some hairpin turns. If you take it slow you'll be fine, but the turns rule out larger vehicles. Best guess anything over a 24' trailer or the smallest of 5th wheels is out of the question. This is van and truck camper country.

The coordinates take you to the first of two areas that could be considered group camping areas. Both have fantastic views but the first is better. About a mile before you reach these coordinates there's another camping area without views. After the coordinates you'll reach a cattleguard, and there're no cleared out camping areas beyond that point, or as far as I explored. Cell reception also disappears after the cattleguard.

The flora is mostly ponderosa pines and scrub oak. Fauna was limited to squirrels and birds, but droppings indicated deer/elk, probably during a different season.

Best part was the weather. The days were about 3-4 degrees cooler than Pine, AZ, but the evenings were possibly a couple degrees warmer, despite the higher elevation.

Little to no garbage, let's keep it that way. A great spot.
